asp_databases thread: mySQL & ASP
Message #1 by "Colin Young" <colin42@b...> on Tue, 27 Nov 2001 18:20:44

I have recently bought a website, and I was told that the servers were
Linux, so I couldn't use Access for my database.
I have mySQL, and I was wondering how compatible ASP was with mySQL.
I also wondered if I could use my IIS on win2k to practice/setup my web
site.
Can someone let me know as I am very new to this game

--------------------
i am guessing the host is running chiliASP! on top of apache? either that or
one of the other utilities that allows asp to run on linux. if not, then
your first question is do they support asp:-)

--------------------
about the mySQL db.. yes you can use asp to access mysql, afaik though you
will have to use an odbc provider, as there is no ole db provider out there
yet.. look on www.mysql.com for more info on the odbc provider.
-------------------
I also wondered if I could use my IIS on win2k to practice/setup my web
site.
-------------------
sure, you can even get the mySQL port for windows for free.. go to
www.mysql.com

Just bear in mind when you develop your application that not all of the IIS5
functions are supported by Chili!Soft ASP and the likes.

The question of where ASP is compatible with mySQL is not relevant since ASP
itself knows nothing about databases at all. What you do in ASP is to
instantiate ADO (Activex Data Objects) to get data into an ASP page... All you
need is a ADO driver for mySQL in order for it to work.
However, since it seems the webserver is Linux, you can't use ADO, and will
have to use whatever the appropriate db objects that platform offers.
